About this listen

Bestselling Polish crime by award-winning author Zygmunt Miloszewski.

All eyes are on famous prosecutor Teodor Szacki when he investigates a skeleton discovered at a construction site in the idyllic Polish city of Olsztyn. Old bones come as no shock to anyone in this part of Poland, but it turns out these remains are fresh, the flesh chemically removed.

Szacki questions the dead man's wife, only to be left with a suspicion she's hiding something. Then another victim surfaces - a violent husband, alive but maimed - giving rise to a theory: someone's targeting domestic abusers. And as new clues bring the murderer closer to those Szacki holds dear, he begins to understand the terrible rage that drives people to murder.

From acclaimed Polish crime writer Zygmunt Miloszewski comes a gritty, atmospheric pause resister that poses the question, what drives a sane man to kill?

I was really looking forward to this, but oh dear. Right from the off, I found the reader difficult to listen to because his voice is very deep and growly and when he drops it at the end of sentences it's hard to follow. The storyline is ridiculous and the end is a wet squib. Add to this the constant assessment of women's shagability, up to and including details of how they perform oral sex, which made this woman squirm, and repeated references to rape - irrelevant to the plot - which, like the details about women, are only there to sex up the plot. Nasty.

Great disappointment
